This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on Hbrary shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project 

to make the world's books discoverable online. 

It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject 

to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books 

are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover. 

Marks, notations and other maiginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the 

publisher to a library and finally to you.

NOTE. 



The true bibliophile will recognize in the Hart Library, even 
from a casual perusal of the catalogue, a collection of great 
importance, containing treasures seldom found, even in great 
European private libraries, and it would seem superfluous to call 
attention to any of the many desirable items. The collection 
is rich in artistic and literary treasures which appeal to the 
taste, not only of the bibliophile and bibliopegist, but also to 
the collector of objects of true art, and to the seeker after rarities 
in general. 

Foremost among the many treasures is the collection of his- 
torical and artistic bindings which form a very important division 
of the Hart Library, these bindings, being the individual handi- 
work of the artists, are certainly worthy specimens for a fine Art 
Museum, the first masters of the fifteenth century and later periods, 
as the Clovis family, Le Gascon, Du Seuil, Boyet and others, being 
represented by remarkable examples. The Provenances Illustres 
found in this division include books of the greatest rarity from the 
collections of Diana de Poitiers, Catherine de Medicis, Marguer- 
ite de Valois, Edward V[, Francis H, Charles I, Maioli, Colbert 
and other celebrities, and are worthy of especial attention. 

Recent sales of early Americana prove that this branch of litera- 
ture is meeting due appreciation among collectors and librarians, 
but we wish to specially mention the Canadiana in the present 
catalogue. It includes books from the first printers throughout 
Canada, and although to the American collector they may appear 
of comparatively late date, when it is considered that no printing 
press existed in Montreal prior to 1776, the numerous books 
included in this collection printed before 1820, or even before 
1840, in Canada, must be reckoned among rarities. 

The collection of autographs contains many original documents 
of the greatest rarity and of political and historic interest bearing 
on the history of Canada, especially during the French Dominion, 
covering almost the entire range from Roberval, the discoverer, 
1542, to Vaudreuil, the last French Governor, as also specimens 
of the Sovereigns of France and England, Luther, Melanchton, 
Ferdinand and Isabella, and many others of equal value. 

As usual in our catalogues, the arrangement is mainly alphabeti- 
cal, with the exception of a few especially interesting groups, as 
Bindings, the French and English War of 1755-60, Canadian 
Laws and Imprints, the Canadian Rebellion of 1837, War of 18 12, 
Maps, Autograph Letters and Historical Documents, Portraits and 
Prints.

terly France and England, supported by a dragon and a greyhound, 
and ensigned with a royal crown. Ground or field dotted with stars. 
In the top corners, the arms of the city of London in a shield, with 
' the sun on one side, the crescent moon on the other. 

Reverse Cover. — Panels stamped with the Indos rose, encircled 
with a ribbon, on which is inscribed, in old Gothic letters : 

" Haec rosa virtutis de coelo missa serene, 
A sternum florens regia sceptra feret." 

supported by two angels. The arms of London are on recto, and at 
bottom the binder's mark of Julian Notary, with his initials, England s 
fourth printer, but doing contemporary printing with Caxton, for whom, 
no doubt, he worked.

and Julian Notary for Henry VII and continued for Henry VIII, until 
changed by John Reynor. 

One cover loose and blemishes in the binding in several places, but 
but as fine a specimen as is now obtainable.

1031 GiusTiNiANi, Agostino. Psalterium, hebreum, grecu, ara- 

bicu,, et chaldeu., cu. tribus latinis iterpratatoibus. £t glos- 
sis. Finely engraved and rubricated title. Folio, half 
sheep. Peter Paul Pomis : Genoa, 15 16 

Excessively rare. A good copy of the celebrated Psalter of Agostino 
Giustiniani, Bishop of Nebbio^ in Hebrew, Greek, Arabic and Chal- 
dean. It is one of the earliest polyglots ever printed, and is especially 
valuable as being the first book with a life of Columbus. This is to be 
found on the first page of the twenty-sixth leaf. The first lines of the 
life have been translated as follows, viz. : — ** Then it was that Christo 
pher named Columbus, a Genoese by birth« of low family, who, in our 
times, by his energy, explored in a few months a nreater extent of land 
and of sea than almost all the rest of mankind ever did in all past 
ages, etc,, etc." 

The volume was condemned to be burned by the common hangman 
as it contained statements injurious to Columbus, and thus indirectly 
attacked Pope Alexander the Sixth's deeding the Continent of America 
to Spain, on the assertions of the discoverer. Fernando Columbus, in 
his — '< Historia del Amirante " and refutation of ** The twelve lies of 
Giustiniani," savs: — We will only add that considering the many 
mistakes and falsehoods found in the said Giustiniani's History and 
Psalter, the Senate of Genoa has laid a penalty upon any person that 
stiall read or keep it ; and has caused it to be carefully sought out in 
all places it has been sent to, that it may, by public decree, be destroyed 
ana utterly extinguished."

Margaret of Navarre's Prayer Book in a sumptuous " Reine 
Margot " binding by Clovis Eve. Executed for Queen Margaret by 
" Gilles Debreene in an exquisite manner, with her mdtto and legend, 
*' Spes mea Deus " and " Sumxe Toi,"and . her favorite flowers several 
times introduced in the ornamental borders. 

This is a Manuscript of exceptional value, of great artistic and his- 
torical interest and in a marvelously fine preservation. The large 
miniatures are generally painted with architectural and landscape back 
ground, and finished in an exceUent manner of gilding and coloring, 
they represent : St. John at Pathmos, Pentecost, Annunciation to the 
Virgin, Visitation of Elizabeth, Adoration of Joseph and Mary, Annun- 
ciation to the Shepherds, Adoration of the Maggi, Presentation in tho 
Temple, Slaughter of the Innocents, Assumption of the Virgin, David, 
and another ; the small miniatures are St. Luke, St. Matthew, St. 
Mark, The Virgin, and Descent from the Cross. 

The borders are very brilliant and beautifully painted on gold ground 
in a great variety combining the conventional geometrical cUsigns, with 
elegant ornamentation of flowers and foliage ; the animals, birds and 
butterflies in the borders are especially weU executed. A unique 
feature of the borders is Queen Marguerite's motto, several times intro- 
duced in the design, as also the occurence of the fleur de lys and tlie 
daisy. 

Valuable as this gem is in itself, an additional value is added by th<: 
exquisite binding by Clovis Eve, in which it is encased. 

The binding which is in marvelously fine preservation, was evidently^ 
done for "Reine Margot" Margaret of Valois; the tooling covering 
the entire panels, is **^ petits fers ** consisting of a wide and a narrower 
border of branchesi divided by gold fillets, the inner compartment 
filled in with small medallions formed by branches, daisies and other 
flowers, filling all the empty spaces,

1516 ManMCt^fi an Vtliam. Horae Beatae Mariae . Virginis, 

cum Caleodarittm. A French manuscript of the fourteenth 
century, executed on 70 leaves of fine velluni, with 13 large 
full page and 5 small miniatures, exquisitely illuminated 
borders to every page and hundreds of illuminated letters, 
all heightened with gold on a purple ground. 8^ in 
contemporary stamped calf. Saec, XIV 

A remarkable and very valuable Book of Hours, by an artist of great 
merit and many resources, judging from the great variety of design and 
the artistic finish of the miniatures and the orders. 

The laige miniatures being of unusual sixe, covering almost the entire 
page, are of the highest style of art and are true pictures of the cos- 
tumes and architecture of the period. At the bottom of every minia- 
ture is a large head with extended win^ and under the Crucifixion is 
the Arms defaced of the original proprietor having two large animals 
(wolves) as supporters. 

The delineation of the faces especially is the work of a master and 
these as well as the costumes are of excepdonal bilUancy and finished 
with attention to the minutest details. 

The borders are of an elaborate and rich geometrical design on gold 
ground, some blended with a floriated pattern and scroll work, and 
.some worked up in geometrical squares, triangles, etc., blended with 
foliage and flowers. 

The large miniatures are: The Annunciation, Mary and Elizabeth, 
Adoration of Joseph and Mary, Annunciation to the Shepherds, 
Adoration of the Magi, Circumcision, Slaughter of the Innocents, 
Assumption of Marv, David sending the letter, Christ carrying the 
Cross, uescent of tne Holy Ghost, Laxarus, Crucifixion. The small 
miniatures represent St. Mary, Macdalene, St. Katherine, St. Margueite, 
St. Barbara and St. Lawrence with his typical gridiron. 

1517 iUatUtScript on Vellum. Horse Beatae Marise Virginis, cum 

Calendario. A finely written manuscript on 107 leaves, of 
the fourteenth century, with miniatures and numerous illu- 
minated borders, heightened with gdld. 4° in old stamped 
calf. Saec, XIV 

This manuscript is of early English or Norman execution, as is 
evidenced by the presence in the calendar of the names of Edward, 
King of England, St. Aithelertia, St. Dustan, St. Etheldred, St. 
Armulph, St. Osibald, St. Wilfride and other distinctively English 
Saints. The calendar is unfortunately lacking one leaf. On the recto 
of f. 6, at the commencement of the vol., is a very laree initial letter 
D, within which is the Virgin and Child seated, the back-ground bein^ 
of carmine with gold tracery. This initial is continued in a border 
surroundine the entire page, beautifully ornamented and heightened 
with burnished gold, and within which are full-length figures of angels 
with harps and cymbals; at bottom an escutcheon, which is blank. 
On recto of f. 34 is a similar initial with the Virgin and Child, but of 
different treatment in the border, etc. In addition to Uiese there are 
some fourteen other pages, ornamented with borders of colors and 
l^old of the most tasteful and intricate desi^, besides several hundred 
initials in gold, some of which have spraymg branches in red, purple, 
etc., covering the side margin. 

The text is most« beautifully written and is almost free from the 
contractions usually found in MS. of this and subsequent periods, and 
would indicate even an earlier period than that of the 14th century. 

The volume has had hard usage, and many of the pages are unfortu- 
nately disfigured by stains and dirt.

(ground of landscape, and blue firmament, in the early stvle; the page 
borders aroand tne miniatures are of a pronounced out very neat

'* Written in £nglandin the reign of Edward I (about a. d. 1290), and 
otferinGT an unusuaUly fine example of the art of illuminatioA. The 
siual) miniatures are drawn with singular slcill and delicacy, the colour- 
ing is richlv harmonious, the gold in the ground-work is very pure and 
bright, ana the whole effect extremely elegant. It has been supposed 
that the book was written at Canterbury, as it is closely akin in its 
calligraphy and ornamentation to the style of a similar M8. now in the 
British \Iuseum, which b said to bear the date of the cathedral city 
. about A. D. i25o-6a*' 

There are some notes in a ^sixteenth or early seventeenth-century 
. hand ; one of them, at the end, being a copy of Henri IX*s epitaph, 
with variants. 

1522 iUantlScrifit 00 V^ilnin. Missall. A manuscript on upwards 

of 200 leaves of vellum, in large gothic characters, with 
music noted, with rubrics and initial letters ; also many 
large and elaborately ornamented initials. Royal 4^ full 
embossed morocco, inside vellum covers, leather binders. 

A valuable and beautifully executed MS. in large characters. The 
manuscript, which is in the same hand throughout, is in exceptionally 
fine State of preservation, if we except the defects in the parchment, 
which, owing to the large size of the sheets, it seems to have been 
difficult to obtain in absolute perfect state ; these imperfections have 
in each instance been carefully mended by sewing, and have been 
avoided by the scribe. 

Lesser capitals are employed as the initials of phrases : There are 
but few aboreviations : u and v are both employed to express the 
sound of the latter letter. The illuminated initials are of peculiar 
interest, being entirely of the stj'le pertaining to the Irish and Anglo- 
Saxon MSS., brilliant in color, and composed of minute and delicate 
interlacings, '* a style of art, originated, cultivated and brought to a 
most marvellous state of perfection, alnolutelv distinct from that of 
any other part of the civilized world, and whicn, having been carried 
abroad by numerous Irish and Anglo-Saxon missionaries, was adopted 
and imitated in the Schools or Monasteries established or vbited by 
the former, many of which, in after ages, became the most famous 
seats of learning." On this subject Mr. Digby Wyatt observes **that 
in delicacy of handling, and minute but faultless execution, the whole 
range of Paleography offers nothing comparable to the early Irish and 
Anglo-Saxon MSS.

^'This was apparently executed in Normandy or somewhere in 
North-east France in a monastry where the traditions of Irish or 
Anglo-Saxon art-decoration still survived. In the numerous dotted 
edge lines that appear in the initials or on the figures within them, we 
observe this particularly. The figure of St. Paul (with others) in the 
first initial U is strikingly like the earlier Anglo-Saxon work."

Kgidio Colonna, better known as i^gldlus Romanus, was a Pupil of 
Thomas Aquinas, and was sumamed the profound scholar. He died 
at Avignon in 13 16, having been Archbishop of Bourges since 1292. 
This work was written before 1285, as shown by its dedication to 
l'hiUp])e le Bel before his accession to the throne. The date of 
Gauchi's translation is not ascertained, but the present MS. proves that 
it was anterior to 1300, probably almost contemporary with the Latin 
original. Although the above MS. (probably written a( Bourges) is 
said to have been in Claude D'Un^'s possession (middle of the 
!»Lxteenth century) it bad been in English hands at a still eariier date. 
Several minute glosses in English, In a handwriting of Henry VII's 
time, are visible on the margins. Amon^t these we find boorderesses^

** Valuable for the addition of the map of the world by Johan Ruysch, 
a German, which is the first printed map on which the discoveries in 
America, are laid down, but without the name of America, and espec- 
ially for its delineation of the coast of Brazil, which is evidently de- 
rived from the voyages of Vespucius. Newfoundland is shown, not ai 
an island, but as part of the Asiatic continent. The discoveries of Co- 
lumbus in the West Indies and on the northern coast of South Ameri- 
ca are represented very dearlv, showing Cuba only in part, and as far 
ad the great discoverer himseu had en>lored it. With the exception of 
the error in connecting the northern aiscoveries on the main land of 
Asia, the prevailing idea of that day, this map is a correct representa- 
tion of the state of American discovery at the time of its publication.'*

" Of the excessive rarity of this book, an idea may be formed from 
thefact that the late Mr. Edwin Trosssoueht for many years before 
)ie cuuld obtain a copy to reprint, as he had already reprinted the 
Voyage. In the preface he states that " on a offert, durant des annees, 
i2oo fr. d*un exemplaire de Tllistoire, sans pouvoir s*en procurer un 
seul.' This statement has reference to over twenty vears ago, and as 
valuable old books have since then increased remarkably in price as 
well as in rarity, the cost of this last copjr is relatively low. 

Only two copies are known, besides this, containing the four pages 
at the end, which give the native words and the music of a Huron song 
and an Iroquois hymn." — Quaritch Cat,

The above two volumes are the result of a "supreme effort" by a 
Canadian binder and are very interesting as such ; the ornamentation 
consists of avery elaborate tooling on inlaid leather of various colors, 
and is certainly very original, but the combination of colors is rather 
surprising.
